Getting Started with WiscList
WiscList implements Lyris ListManager web software to help you create dynamic, interactive mailing lists with little effort. Although Lyris strives to build user-friendly interfaces, new users may need some time to get used to the software. This tutorial will help new users become familiar with ListManager, using step-by-step instructions and visualisations to get a mailing list up and running as quickly as possible.
Please note that most of the material here can be carried out by both site and list administrators. There are certain tasks, however, that only site administrators can perform. If a task can only be performed by a site administrator, it will be noted.
Before you begin:
- You will need a WiscList site username and password to access ListManager. If you do not have this information, apply or e-mail wisclist@doit.wisc.edu for account recovery assistance. If you are a list administrator, you will need your email address and the password given to you by your site administrator. Contact your site administrator if you need assistance with this information.
- You will need to have an active Internet connection to access Lyris ListManager.
